Hey,
Thanks for the reply. LL does work out of the box, and it is good distro to transition from linux. I installed it because it was easy to install. I have some exposure to Linux, but never moved past the GUI.
I have found that there is a huge hole in the linux world. We can find distros for experienced users. We can find distros for new users, but it is very difficult to find a distro designed to take somebody from beginner to experienced.
I would like to change that, so I am starting in LL where I have some support while I explore the CLI and learn enough to move on to a more barebones distro. Eventually, I will post a series of tutorials built around some server that actually explores the potential and power of the Linux OS.
I really appreciate what LL offers, and when I move on, I will still recommend the distro to people who just want a GUI experience like Windows.
The ideal distro I'm looking for is a 300 -500 mb server, built on systemV, probably Debian based and 64bit. I am looking for something light enough to run on minimal equipment and still take advantage of a modern system. I suspect that I will end up over at Arch or Gentoo, but I don't know. I am still learning to basics.
If you have any suggestions, I would love to hear them.
